Have you used one lately? They're not nearly as bad as they used to be. . 

No, I don't upgrade yearly like some king! 

 

I went from the S3 to the 6p (that's how long I hold phones for lol)

Moved to the rear of the device, IIRC the original plan was to have a synaptics sensor under the main display but they couldn't pull it off in time for production.

Hm.. at least they didn't rush it like they did the Note 7.

I do not like the rounded edges on the Samsung phones.

I've used a few and they work fine but I just don't like the feel in my hand.

What you mean? I was saying all of them were good phones, but when it came to speed the cheaper phaune did it better xD.

It did everything they did and faster. But yeah battery wasnt glorious, camera was inadequate in the least and the display was dim but it was a good enough phone and my father is using that phone.

So clearly it didn't do everything they did, and certainly not faster

You paid more, you got a better experience. Which was the entire point.

Hah, you don't have to be a king to upgrade yearly. Just have an ok job. Doesn't even have to be a great job. Once you buy the first phone, it's not a great expense to buy the next one once you sell your current one.

I buy yearly. Makes the most sense.

Yes dat true, but sadly it was not the case with all of the features on a much more expensive device :l.

 

In faster i meant daily usage xD. I could rely on that phone to never slowdown, even when it should. Felt amazing and i guess you get speed for cheap and rich features for pricy phones, but its not a norm and the Pixel broke that overview with its crazy price and great camera.

 

Ironic xD, isnt it?

I have more than an okay job but that has nothing to do with why I hold out. I don't want to spend $500-800 yearly on minor upgrades - ex. the 6p, which came out in 2015, is still close to some flagships that came out this year. Yeah, I don't want to upgrade for that extra 0.2 ghz and .5 oz lighter phone. Plus I rarely touch my phone so keeping up with the slightly better new phones makes no sense for me. That $800 is half a months rent 

 

Buy if you're one of those people that use their phone on the level of a computer than okay.

You drive a 245,000$ vehicle .-.? Yeah.... that is more than my father would make with a lifetime of work and maximum savings applied xD.

 

Consumer friendly products are better for me xD.
